Chapter 752 - Detected

Name:God´s Eyes Author:HideousGrain
Using the moonlight affinity Artemis transferred to him, Jason was able to heal the Mewi, while additionally transferring a slight amount of mana without telling them.

This was extremely good and allowed him to tend to their injuries without going against their tradition and culture. 

After he was done healing the few Mewi, he looked around using his Emperor Eyes, trying to see whether there were others who were in need of his help. 

Fortunately, that was not the case, and he was able to leave the second Mewi village without further ado. 

He disappeared as suddenly as he had emerged out of nowhere, making the Mewi believe that he was truly a ghost, or possibly even a holy spirit that had been sent to their rescue. 

His aura and appearance were enough evidence to make them believe that the latter might be the case! 

Yet, what they didn't know was that Jason was just leaving for the other villages in order to provide them a helping hand and alleviate their pain too. 

He was already exhausted, but that didn't stop Jason from fulfilling the responsibility the dungeon had handed over to him by giving Jason the task to protect the villages. 

Some may think that he didn't take the mission seriously, but with the given amount of time he had before the mission started, Jason tried to make the most out of it! 

As such he didn't regret anything even after seeing the sad reality as many Mewi died in the Oceanfolk attack wave, which the Deepsea Scia labeled as a 'small attack'. 

A gigantic wave awaited them in the near future, and Jason knew that he had to do much more in order to survive and help the villages do the same too.

The casualties consisted largely of beings that couldn't properly defend themselves. Thus, Jason didn't think that he was majorly responsible for their death. 

He couldn't cut himself to be present everywhere at once, and he always gave his utmost effort to do everything.

As such, there was no need to feel anything but sadness for the death of the Mewi.

Nevertheless, instead of being discouraged, Jason's determination increased exponentially, knowing that he had to increase the combat prowess of the villagers, while somehow attempting to relocate a few villages.

This was important because all of them were nestled farther from each other, which Jason realised because it took him an entire week to find every single village inside the valley.

Most of them had Mewi that followed the path of Maest, but interestingly, there were also some that followed the path of Pryr and Spiral.

They had mutated and were deemed an outcast by their old village, forcing them to build their own home.

However, this differential treatment allowed them to become much stronger, even more so in the last few decades since the mana in the entire valley had begun to rapidly deteriorate.

These particular villages had been able to defend against the attack of the Oceanfolk without too many issues, but Jason still warned them of further dangers before bidding them farewell.

He didn't really care if those villagers accepted him or not because it was their decision, and he wouldn't force them.

In the end, he knew that they required his help in order to survive against the ginormous attack wave of an entire army.

That was everything he had to know in order to be confident that they would ask for his help soon enough.

Even if they wouldn't ask, Jason had figured out that he didn't have to rescue every single village because there was a small one that seemed to have been destroyed in the last wave.

It was only a small one with a population of less than 50 Mewi, and among them, more than 40 had been able to flee.

As such, Jason had given them a helping hand by pointing them on the way towards the next village before departing to the said village and informing them about the incoming refugees.

Fortunately, the villagers accepted the refugees without any issue, otherwise, Jason would have been forced to think of a way to solve the issues at hand.

After spending seven days searching for villages, slaughtering the remaining forces of the Oceanfolk, and so on, Jason noticed that he had been able to procure lots of information.

Yet, at the same time, it was weird because the Elite units of the Oceanfolk and he never encountered each other, not directly, at least.

Whether this was fate, or someone was controlling their encounter, Jason didn't know, but it didn't really matter for now.

He believed that they could roughly figure out that there was a variable at work because their people were slaughtered like flies at a rapid pace.

Other than that, there was the fact that a small village had suddenly erected two gigantic walls out of nowhere, in addition to laying dozens of traps.

Thus, it was crystal clear that something had changed, which was Jason, the unknown variable, which the Elite was unable to properly identify.

However, Jason didn't believe that they were not aware of his combat prowess and gauging it was not exactly an issue.

Only being able to figure out how fast he would progress was probably an issue, and Jason wanted to make use of this.

Entering the 2nd threshold of the Prismar stage was a target he had set for himself during the next few months, but at the same time, it was even more important to solve the issues created by the mana vein.

After that, it would be possible for him to divert his attention to the villages in order to bring them together if possible.

Even if it was just for one battle, fighting together was much better than fighting in dozens of small groups, trying to protect a village.

While moving around, Jason was fine with small groups of a hundred beings fighting together, but that was a huge difference because they were not stagnant, trying to defend something without any value.

At least, that was what Jason thought.

He was unable to think of any value the villages had, other than giving them a roof to sleep soundly.

However, the shelter would be useless if they were to be dead, and Jason could only shake his head after he had asked affable village tribe chiefs about their opinion of relocating the village elsewhere.

Even the most gentle and level-headed tribe chief thought of his question as an insult.

Thus, Jason had only been able to leave without doing anything other than healing the heavily injured Mewi.

This was annoying, but not something he could change.

Because of that, he decided to take a look at the mana vein's issue.

With seven days have passed since the attack wave of the Oceanfolk, everything had calmed down. As such, only a few more days had to pass before Jason reached the area above the mana vein, or to be precise the place at which the mana vein's problem was located.

Using his Emperor Eyes with a large amount of mana, Jason completely ignored the warning every Mewi had given him- to not use too much mana.

Rather than not using mana, he had to figure out the issue of the mana vein. Thus, he would use as much of it as he found necessary.

However, he couldn't help but feel odd when he arrived at the location of the mana vein's issue.

"A...sea? An extremely deep one at that… does it reach the mana vein?" 

His confusion was noticeable, and Jason was just taking a look, trying to figure out if he could approach the mana vein in a different way.

Unfortunately, this didn't seem possible. Thus the only way to get close to the mana vein's most problematic area was through the sea that was filled with all kinds of beasts.

There were even a few remaining beasts of the Oceanfolk he fought on land had returned to the water

However, not only was his strength much lower underwater, but the Oceanfolk had an advantage of fighting him on their home ground!

Nevertheless, Jason knew that he had to fix the mana vein.

Thus, he got his act together and decided to fix everything as quickly as possible.

Mustering all the courage he could find, he thus jumped into the ice-cold sea.
